BOWLING GREEN — Scot Loeffler said Monday that Bowling Green did not have a final answer from the NCAA on transfer quarterback Matt McDonald, who applied for a waiver to be immediately eligible this season.
For the time being, that leaves Bowling Green with two eligible scholarship quarterbacks — and a challenging scenario for any offense.
The Falcons started graduate transfer Darius Wade in its 46-3 win against Morgan State, and Wade won the Mid-American Conference East Division offensive player of the week for hurling three touchdown passes in just three quarters of work.
Behind him is Grant Loy, whose effectiveness as a dual threat — Loy rushed for 60 yards on eight carries and threw a touchdown of his own last week — could serve as an offensive weapon for Bowling Green, even if Loy isn’t starting.
